C. SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
Mr. Sean joined Hotel Sun Jaya in 1977. He first became lift operator, moved to different areas such as: kitchen equipment, laundry, plumbing and almost into every area in service and maintenance at the Engineering Department. He got more promotions and in 1999 to date, he is the Chief in Engineering Department.
As the Chief, Mr. Sean coordinates with his staff using a personal approach. He guides and trains them to keep them motivated on the job. He uses his past and rich experience as guide and apply it to his daily activities and the problems he handle. Despite his experience, he still wants to learn more. He displays eagerness to learn new trends and breakthroughs in the engineering filed in a hotel set-up. An area he needs to improve is his English knowledge.
Based on the above findings, we find that Mr. Sean is technically competent in his field that learned by doing. Through years of experience, he has become an expert but needs to update his knowledge to be more competitive. We advise management to support him in terms of learning and send him to training to improve his skills both technical and non-technical aspects. However, considering his age, at 54, his successor should be identified and be groomed at this stage.
